The end of the Cristiano Ronaldo era at Manchester United is definitively recorded. Thanks to a seventh success in all competitions, Erik ten Hag’s collective has proven its ability to repeat good performances, both at home and away. This time, it was at the Molineux Stadium that the Mancunians found their way to victory. That said, we had to be patient with the device concocted by Julen Lopetegui. In the first period, the only real opportunity was to be put to the credit of Alejandro Garnacho, not killer enough in front of José Sa to take advantage of an ill-adjusted back pass from Nelson Semedo (16th).

De Gea, the other big contributor

Preferred to Rashford in the Mancunian starting lineup, the Argentinian winger did not take advantage of his teammate’s disciplinary gap to put his team on track for victory. On the other hand, Rashford showed his trainer ten Hag his indispensable status. Already fundamental to breaking the lock of Nottingham Forest earlier this week, the number 10 of the Red Devils has given the cover this afternoon. Entering the break, Rashford found the opponent’s fault thanks to an incisive breakthrough and a strong finish with the right foot (76th, 0-1).

A few minutes later, this same Rashford thought of offering himself a double but his second achievement was canceled for a hand (85th). If Manchester United won, it is also thanks to David De Gea. Imperial, the Spanish goalkeeper diverted a free kick from Ruben Neves for a corner (58th), then a header from Raul Jiménez (94th). This is now MU fourth, two points ahead of Tottenham. Thanks WHO ? Thanks Rashy.
